The rise of the food nationalism era (Feed Strategy) 

September 26, 2022


Feed Strategy published an article on how food export restrictions embarked on by a growing number of countries may herald a beginning of a dangerous era of food nationalism, in which grain becomes not just a commodity but political leverage and even a weapon. In the months since the beginning of the Ukraine war, the number of countries restricting food exports soared from three to 16, IFPRI reported. More countries keep joining the “food restrictions” club, not just banning grain exports but also limiting supplies of meat, oil, and other commodities.
